1 atmospheric pressure = 760.0 mm Hg

Thus 580 mm Hg = (580 mm Hg/(760 mm Hg/atm))

= 0.763 atm

Using hooke's law find the elastic constant of a spring that stretches 2 cm when 4newton force is applied to it

Kay [80]

Answer:

2N/cm

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Hooke's Law, the force required to extend or compress a spring is directly proportional distance you can stretch it, which is represented as:

$F=kx$

where, $F$ is the force which is stretching or compressing the spring,

$k$ is the spring constant; and

$x$ is the distance the spring is stretched.

Substituting the given values to find the elastic constant $k$ to get:

$F=kx$

$4=k(2)$

$k=\frac{4}{2}$

$k=2$

Therefore, the elastic constant is 2 Newton/cm.
